The concert is part of the Margate Summer Series, which sees a string of outdoor concerts come to the Kent coast until September, featuring artists such as Paloma Faith, Becky Hill, Nile Rodgers and Busted.

The chart-topping singer, who first rose to fame with the release of his 1984 album Reckless, will perform on the open-air Scenic Stage.

His back-catalogue of multi-million-selling singles includes Heaven, Please Forgive Me, Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman and (Everything I Do) I Do It for You, which spent 16 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart after appearing on the Robin Hood Prince of Thieves soundtrack.

Over his five-decade career, the guitarist has received three Academy Award nominations, three Ivor Novello Awards and an impressive 20 Juno Awards.

For his Margate gig, the renowned artist will be joined by electro-pop singer-songwriter Cassyette.

Bryan Adams will be at Dreamland in Margate on Thursday, June 13 and tickets are still available here.
